Hehehe, yep, I finally got out me dremel and attacked my B4. No, there is very little B4 left, and a heck of a lot of modding still to be done, including a new moulded body shell.

You can view the sitr for it at http://www.teamyrd.co.uk
I dub it, the B4-X , the B4 XTREME

You do realise there's a much easier way to do this....

Give Lesro a ring and order an X6, easy.

And have an ubber odd cell layout... lol...

The only downside of using a flipped transmission, is the shock tower placement and the camber link placement.

Have fun making the chassis all floppy getting the motor to fit!!

yeah, that is going to be a big problem LOL. I am also vexed as to how I am going to brace the rear onto the chassis, as at the moment its too flappy, one bad jump and snap, that'd be me retiring from a national next year LOL. I may have to order some carbon fibre and a fret saw;) Ahhh well, I got a bonus this month .......

how do you aim to install the motor correctly when there is no access point for the motor screw? escpecially when other components are added such as U plate, shock tower, wishbones etc etc

I am going to have to cut into the chassis, weakening it further, so then I need to look into the world of carbon fibre machinging and cutting a proper chassis for it LOL
